Michael Schumacher Breaking Lap Record on First Flying Lap
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 мар 2022
- At the 2004 Australian Grand Prix, Michael Schumacher broke the race lap record on his first flying lap of the first practice session. His next lap broke the track record. A pity that wasn't captured.
Who needs practice? Other than Barrichello, the rest were absolutely nowhere.

Thanks everyone for watching, this video seems to be taking off. For those who are unaware of how incredible this piece of driving is, this is Michael's first flying lap of the session, he only did one installation lap and a slow sighting lap beforehand. He had never driven the F2004 at Albert Park prior to this, so had to know how the car would handle. He also hadn't driven the track for a year and there are always small changes year on year.
He basically went out with no practice on a green track and beat a lap record that was set on lap 32 of the race on a rubbered in track and with hours of practice and setup work.
This is one of those rare moments in F1 that we won't see the likes of again.
the GOAT
Man and machine working together
One interesting fact was, the then Michelin chief Pierre Dupasquier
once said to a news outlet, after this lap, he closed his textbook at track and went for a beer. Because he knew, that this season was also over. I never forget this. Basically this lap destroyed everyone those days... Now 20 yars older, I recgnize how bad this was for the sport because it was boring thus then as a Ferrari fan I found it funny.
¿Why he didn't do any practice session?
Anthony, thank you. Seeing -2.639 sec is already incredible but you sharing the background behind the deed... wunderbar
The 2004 Ferrari was so good, even Ferrari couldn't believe it. They had to take the car apart and check everything because they couldn't believe, it was several seconds faster than the 2003 car. Smaller and 200kg lighter than today. I love the old cars from 1995-2004.
04 was the last year of the extremely aggressive yet streamlined cars. They looked SOOO good because everyone had kinda ironed out the car designs and this being the last year before the crazy aero pieces of the mid-2000s made it look so sleek even today

She‘s the Red Goddess for a reason.
Yea, it was something like 2 seconds faster at Fiorano than the 2003 car had been. All the crew was scrambling thinking they'd screwed something up or the car was underweight. Meanwhile, Michael was sitting in the car with the biggest shit-eating grin on his face because he knew the car was legit. The 2004 Ferrari was a cheat code on 4 wheels 🤣
Was it further from the competition than F2002??
2 and a half seconds FASTER in a single lap. That is INSANE for F1. TOTALLY INSANE. Alonso had no chance.
In Quali it was just 4 or 6 tenths between them

@@pmatias pseudo??
@@emilekaram6094 2004 was a car for 4-9 depending on the race, 2005 was a car for 2nd, Mclaren was as fast as fragile, and the Alonso won 2005

THE GOLDEN ERA OF F1.........That was the REAL F1 BEASTS
THE GOLDEN ERA IS FROM 2005 TO 2012, EXCLUDING 2011
@@emilekaram6094The golden era stopped in 2006. 7 and 8 are full of BS...
@@FonikosGazmas NO THEY WERE BETTER UNTIL 2012 because of battles unlike early 2000's, Schumi's domination was at least as bad as Lewis's one
@@emilekaram6094 Dowsized to V8s, Scandals, weird technical regulations. Yeah nah.. 2006 ended the golden era
Im sure there wasn't any of that bullshit before 2006...
*Looks at the previous fucking year*@@FonikosGazmas
this looks sounds and feels 10x faster than the current giant f1 cars
we need this back so hard
The new cars are faster tho
@@benodaboy i am very aware. the old ones just "look" faster as they are more nimble and smaller
@@benodaboy compared to 2004? not really, and they're irrefutably slower across race distance
@@benodaboyin qualifying spec, absolutely. But due to modern rules, F1 races are quite a bit slower than in the early 2000s. It took until 2020 for some lap records from 2004/05 to get beaten by the insanely fast Mercedes cars. Today's cars are a few seconds per lap slower than 2020 and 2021 cars.
In the 2023 Italian Grand Prix, the fastest lap was 4 seconds slower than the 2004 fastest lap (i.e. the track record) set by Barrichello. It will most likely never be beaten.
the current cars are terrible - too big, too heavy, too long and they drive like buses
Alleine bei diesen Kommentatoren bekomme ich Gänsehaut und Nostalgie-Flashs ...
Nie wieder können sich die ganzen Spaghettifresser sich über Ferrari aufgeilen
Alles vergeht, nur Alonso bleibt.
@@csr7080 War schon ne geile Zeit in der F1, auch einfach weil Schumacher diese Herausforderung bei Ferrari gesucht hat, das hat der F1 damals sehr viel gegeben
Jacques Schulz und Marc Surer haben das so viel besser kommentiert als Roos / Schumacher..
Marc Surer kommentiert immernoch beim SRF und es ist leider ein absolutes Trauerspiel sich anzuhören, der Typ hat seinen Zenit wirklich längst überschritten haha
"Track record : M. Schumacher (2004)" a classic
Schumacher is amazing
90% its the car. 10% the driver.
No
@@braveheart5708but the car is build by Schumacher himself?
Today it's twenty years that this wonderful beast was launched. 😊
twenty. fucking. years.
time is running
It would be hard to pick anyone above MS, he had every tool and trait you could want in a champion. For me, his most impressive drive was in Spain, I think, when 1/3 of the way into the race his gearbox got stuck in 5th (of 6). He instantly changed his lines to maintain corner speed and completed two pit stops with the transmission stuck in 5th and finished 2nd overall. He needed no one to tell him what to do, he responded INSTANTLY...
when he returned to the pit with 3 tyres, or when he did like 50 fastest lap with a 4 stop strategy, was just insane
I can only agree, in that race where the gearbox hung up that was a masterful performance, one of the best I've ever seen in F1. Together with Senna in Monaco in a bad car that was so close to the barriers that there was absolutely nothing in between
I remember both, the race where he was stuck in 5th gear and the one with the 4 pit stops. Imagine going qualifying speed for 90 minutes, just legendary - and amazing to watch!
Spa 1995 when he stayed on slicks in rain.
Goat 🐐
I go for LH but even his talent would not break the lap record on the first flying lap of the season
@@AlonsoRules KKKKKKKKKKKKKK
Michael Schummi is the GOAT.
Senna clear
Nope,that's Lewis Hamilton
@@sandordomonkos8351Clark, fangio without a question even senna admitted it
This was devastating. I remember being so hyped up for this season after the close 2003 title fight, the aggressive new car designs from Williams and McLaren, and the strong form BAR and my boy JB had shown in testing. All hope shattered and destroyed in one single lap.
The pure extreme high scream of the V10 pumping around 20000 rpm is just not matched anywhere. So pure and my god its could give me goosebumps all over my body when we visited tracks
I believe that this car, with modern technology and on modern tyres, would still be faster than the f1 cars nowadays
Well it wouldn´t be that car anymore. With modern tech and tires. So I am confused what you mean? The chassis?
@@thomasoring Minor upgrades to its components to make it more reliable and faster. Other than that, I don't believe the tires making the car any different
They (Mick Schumacher) tested it with Pirelli tires, few years back. He was about the Haas time, first round, he tried. That car is 20 years old and could still qualify for modern F1 grid. The F2004 was and still is a beast.
@@thomasnieswandt8805 Yes, I believe it would perform better than the modern cars with only minor changes. Ralf Schumacher had a very competitive time in Austria as well when he drove his BMW in a show run
alsonso drove his 2005er championship car in 2020 and was even faster then the actual f1 cars, and on top he just was cruising around not pushing it too the limit, just having fun with the old car on track.
Ein Michelin-Mann hatte mal sinngemäß gesagt, dass sie quasi die Saison nach dieser Runde bereits abgeschrieben haben. Ich kann das Zitat nicht mehr finden.
War er weiß und ziemlich fett?
I'd rather look this video 20 times in a row, then look a current F1 race.
That lap, that sound and car are just racing poetry.
Man that last pixel. Thise cars looked so good i cant imagine watching back then. Born in 02
Good old times.🎉
Those were the days when F1 still deserved to be called the premier class.
Astonishing lap. The legendary speed.
It's easily still the most impressive championship winning car this century, until they bring back the engine sounds, the power of fast laps for current f1, just feels to silent and unspectacular in comparison.
Senna clear
That sound 😍😍😍
And 20 years later Alonso is still a F1 driver. 😀
The car so fast it confused Ferrari
talent wise this man is the goat in F1. There was no better driver in bad conditions, he surely was the most skilled driver ever. Hamilton and Senna close, but not exactly on schumi level. On a rainy day he'd smoke each and any of them
MSC had a great feeling for knowing the exact grip a given track condition will produce and driving exactly to those conditions. Hamilton is the same. Senna is pretty close. Verstappen is nowhere near, he just has a massive car advantage.
There’s no denying the F2004 is fast on pace but Michael would literally extract every ounce of performances of this car and made it even faster
he drove not the f2004 in this, he drove just an upgraded version of the f2003.
the f 2004 wasn`t ready at this point, as you can see it is australia the first race of the year.
He did this lap with one installation lap, then just went straight out and broke the lap record. He had never driven the car on that track and it was his first lap in 12 months. The real genius is that he managed to do this from nothing.
@@AlonsoRules I think there is only one driver who could ve done this too. And thats Senna.
I still belive this is the fastest ever F1 car. Put a pair a slicks on it and it would break most, if not all track records
When cars sounded like racing cars
Alle reden über Max sein RB oder Lewis sein Mercedes aber dieses Auto war ein absoluter cheat Code
Und der Dativ ist dem Genitiv sein Tod
Give the F2004 the todays slicks and it will destroy even the W11
slicks would be about 2.5 seconds faster than grooves
I will follow this video up shortly with Neil Crompton talking about Schumacher's ability
When the world met the F2004...this is a historical moment. Michael basically gave everyone a trailer for that season: enjoy fighting for 2nd , 1st place is already mine.
I can't understand why the camera was showing Jean Todt and Ross Brawn (at 0:21 to 0:47) instead of Michael. For the people behind the screens it wasn't interesting what these guy in the pit line do, we've wanted to see Michael on the track. But it was typical for Premiere (or DF1)...
Wenn der beste Fahrer der Welt im besten Auto sitzt, dann kommt sowas heraus. Der 2004er Ferrari war ein Wunderauto.
Grooved tyres....
Some terminology: A lap record can only be set (and therefore broken) during the race. That´s why a few years back FIA renamed it race lap record so people do not confuse lap record with track record.
2004th like ;)
👍
The only issue with this is that its impossible to know what the previous record time would have been if the driver drove This ferrari.
The real Michael Schumacher flying laps had been other flying laps... Imola 1996, Monaco 1996, Malesia (but all the whole week-end) 1999, Just to make really few exemples......
yes but they were in qualifying and those laps have been send thousands of times - this video is his first one of the season, having not driven on the track for a year at speed + green track
@@AlonsoRules ok but that ones I said (and I mean), are so much more incredible, while you don't need to explain ANYTHING....
2.6 seconds!!!
Best F1 Car ever! Ever of the top 10 drivers would have been world champions with that
Could the RB 20 rival the F2004 (the 37th car in the F1 history of Ferrari) in terms of dominace?
-0.760 in first sector on prime Fernando Alonso from Michael.
Remember this was the driver and the car that could do four stop strategy and still achieve a victory over Renault (French GP July of 2004).
Five red lights on the 2nd of March 2024.
Twenty years later - the energy drink manufacture seems to have a build another iron boot.
If the first test day is more than an indicator than the other 9 teams should be afraid (ashamed of themselves?!🤷🏻♂️).
First flying lap with lap record and 25sec of Todd’s back view…! Seriously?
imagine this car on slick tires.
it would be 2.5 seconds a lap faster
❤ MSC ❤
Back when F1 as a pure engine & aero racing + talent. nowadays it's all about the show, media, stupid technology, weak drivers. liberty media and americans ruin everything
The FIA is run by Stefano Domenicali (Italian) and Mohammed Ben Sulayem (United Arab Emirates). Please cry more because there are 3 circuits in the US. Half the calendar is in Europe, and are all an hour flight from one another.
You forgot to cry about the engine sounds, by the way.
he didn`t even had the 2004 er ferrari at this point in time just an upgraded version of the 2003er ferrari. remmber first race of the year. the f 2004 was ready in the 5 race of the year.
The F2003 and F2005 were not ready in time. This is the F2004.
Schumacher foi o mais talentoso piloto de F1 que vi correr, depois Senna e Verstappen
Dopo Verstappen 😂😂😂
Crashtappen lol, what a delusional idiot. Remember who won at Interlagos in 2021?
AHAHAHAHA VERSTAPPEN. Also Leclerc is better then max
@@Billybagliomax is great but other f1 drivers will smoke him in the same car (excluding Perez)
Funny fact michael was not the most talented driver, even less talented than Ralf. But his work ethic made up for it.
Mischael, du bist der Größte im Motorspocht!
GOAT ❤
This is the kind of domination we want. The red car's. Not that of a factory that sells piss in a can.
The announcer has a weird accent. I've never heard German sound like that. Then the CO host talks and it just confirms it.
Anyone know German linguistics?
Seems to be an Austrian/Bavarian dialect, it's really common and has millions of speakers
@@2prove makes sense. Thanks for clarifying!
One of those dumb duh moments for me.
@@2prove it sounds different to "High German"
It´s Jacques Schulz. Born in Baden-Württemberg but spent some time in Munich, Bavaria. But this is not the accent.
I don't know the main speaker (totally normal German language), but the second one is Marc Surer, he's Swiss and therefore speaks a slightly different kind of German
Clarification: Marc Surer would normally speak Swiss German (which uses different pronunciation, intonation and sometimes different words), but as he's on German TV he speaks (normal) German - just with a Swiss accent.
Nut enough of that now Rubens, now let Michael pass for the championship! 😋
No, its qualifying, so its not breaking the lap record. Its just going faster than the lap record. Lap records can only happen in races, not in qualifying.
Went like shite of a shovel but not as fast as toaays cars in corners
Forza Ferrari
They ruined the Sport with Greed, like every other Sport.
